🤔So, what is a thermographic survey?
📷A thermographic survey uses thermal imaging cameras to detect heat patterns. This enables our inspectors to identify weaknesses—often referred to as “hotspots”—within electrical components. It also provides a more detailed level of analysis, helping to uncover potential risks that may not be visible during a standard visual inspection.
🤩As part of Guardian’s complete managed compliance service, every fixed wire inspection and testing programme includes a complimentary thermographic survey!
🤔What makes a thermographic survey so essential?
🥵High temperatures within electrical components can often indicate potential risks.
⚠️Common causes of electrical failures of electrical components include fatigue, contamination, defective components, or loose connections.
🔥A common outcome of all failing components is a rise in temperature prior to failure. This can lead to a fire risk, especially with a build-up of flammable materials such as dust.
